Sopelana Surf Report & Forecast

Local Knowledge

Sopelana in Pais Vasco is an exposed beach break that offers dependable surf and can work at any time of the year. This spot provides both left and right-hand waves from an equal measure of windswells and groundswells; while it delivers good surf at all stages of the tide, visitors should be mindful that it can get quite busy in the water, with overcrowding occasionally reaching hazardous levels. The best conditions occur when a Northwest swell combines with Southeast offshore winds, with October being the prime month for consistent, clean waves.
